Common mistakes

Not natural: The agreement is irrevocable to cancel.

Better: The agreement is irrevocable.

Irrevocable is an adjective meaning impossible to cancel; it is not followed by to and a verb.

Irrevocable का मतलब है जिसे रद्द नहीं किया जा सकता; इसके बाद to लगाकर क्रिया नहीं आती।

Not natural: I made an irrevocable promise, but I can take it back anytime.

Better: I made an irrevocable promise, so I cannot take it back.

An irrevocable promise cannot be taken back, so saying you can withdraw it contradicts the word.

Irrevocable वादा वापस नहीं लिया जा सकता, इसलिए उसे कभी भी वापस लेने की बात कहना विरोधाभासी है।
